BLENHEIM PARISH AND VICINITY

Rev. W. W. Clayton has been spend ding
several weeks with us, preaching coca
sionally in, and visiting members OF his
parish, and friends, between Buckhorn
on Lake Erie, to Clearville, distance of
about twenty miles. A discourse was de-
livered at the funeral of the late John
Watson, at the residence, in an apple
grove, one of the largest gatherings that
ever convened at occasions of this kind.
Some of the best minds were deeply i'm
pressed by the discourse, which awakened
deep religious interest, so much SO that
a comfortable hall, belonging TO the A. o.
q. w. was engaged and an invitation and
appointment made. Sabbath morning,
Sept. 4, a large and intelligent assembly
convened to hear the reverend gentleman,
and an able and eloquent discourse was
delivered.
The same evening the Baptist friends,
OF Palmyra, kindly placed their fine
church at his disposal. He preached to
large gathering, the pastor Of the church
being present. The congregation mani
tested their pleasure at the discourse. On
Thursday evening, Sept. s, Mr. Clayton de.
hvere6 doctrinal sermon, or an exposi-
ton of the principles Of Uaiyersalism. in
the town hall, Olearville, to good con-
gregation of mixed theological views and
was listened to with great interest, many
expressing sentiments favorable to the
views advanced. Sabbath following a
communion service and dedication and
baptism of children was rendered. Mr..
Clayton is an able speaker and debater
and has done much good in our vicinity.
We trust that Br. Clayton will again favor
us with his excellent discourses alt ornate
Sabbaths, if not every one.

Woodstock, o., Nov. 3, 1SS7.-[To the
Editor of The UNIvERsALIsT. = The
statement OF the General Secretary, at
the late session in New York, that the at
tendance was the largest ever known in
the history Of the church, and the addition
al fact that all reports indicated increase,
should be regarded as evidence that the
Universalist church is not preparing to die.
The approval of the report of the Com
mittes on Foreign Missions shows that
gradually we are outgrowing the I'M
wise application OF the adage that "Char.
ity begins at home" and are preparing
to make our church and faith felt TO the
"uttermost parts of the EARTH" Oar first
foreign mission conducted by that excel
ent arm of our machinery Woman's
Centenary Associations doing good
work in Scotland. When our missions-
ries begin to work in Japan, and their re-
ports are published in our church jour-
mails, we will realize that Universalism is
assuming universal proportions. While
it is good work TO rationalize theologi-
cal thought in civilized countries, it is
equally as benefcent to present to the
heather Christianity that is better than
their pagsnism. LIE. the good work go
on.

MINNES0TA.-ROc hester.-Rev. w.
81. McGlauhin has returned TO his pastor
al duties. He and his wife, on their ar
rival, were rendered large reception by
the members Of the society, about three
hundred friends being invited.-On the
evening of Oct. 81, Rev. s. W. Eaton and
wife celebrated the fiftieth anniversary
of their wedding. Rev. Mr.. Eaton was
the pioneer editor of Rochester, yet found
time to occasionally preach from the Uni
versalist pulpit. Their many friends Of
fered as testimonial OF their regard, $50
in gold. The society is in prosperous
condition. The treasurer of the Young
Peoples Society reported 5000 as re-
suit of their years work.
MISSOURI-Confe at Tina
The conference meetings appointed for
Tina, Oct. $3.50, came off according to
previous announcement, and they were
very enjoyable and profitable. The min
lsters present were 8. Hull, of Kansas
City; E. M. CLARK, of Ssdalia; and l.. j.
Spencer, State Missionary. Sermons
were preached as follows: Friday, 18th,
7:30 P. NJ, Rev l.. J. Spencer, (Heb ii. y;
Saturday, IL A. M, Rsv. e. M. Clark,
John vi. 39); Saturday, 1880 P. M, Rev.
s. Hull, (Gal. vi. y; Sunday, IL A. NJ,
Rev. 8. Hull, Isaiah XIV 6. 81; Sunday,
3P. M, Rev. l.. J. Spencer, e Cor. v. ID;
Sunday. 7:30 P. M, Rsv. E. M. Clark,
phil. ii. 81: "He is able to subdue all
things unto himself').
The roads were excellent, the weather
fine and the people attentive and recep-
tive. The bright, moon-lit nights made
the evening meetings pleasure even in
an earthly sense.
The congregations were good, and on
Sunday night the hall was filed to over
flowing. The sermons were excellent and
we'll received, and we feel that the Tina
Conference is a success.
We were glad to see Sister Hull at the
meetings, looking as hale and sprightly
as upon our first acquaintance. Br. Hull
likewise, bears the honors of his age with
light step, and breaches with the same
power and logic as of yore. Br Clark,
also, seemed in better. condition than
when he attended our Convention at
Tina two years ago. The only draw
back to our enjoyment of these meetings
was the absence of expected friends
from Marion Center, Gould Farm and
other points. We wanted them to share
the feast with us, and were disappointed
that they were not with us in body, as we
trust they were in spirit.

F. Glib, OF Decatur, ILL.,, came here a

State Convention, and after preaching
eight sermons, organized a church of six

an unusual interest, beginning with

Union says: "The Universalist church
was crowded to hear the first sermon of
the pastor, Rev. E. l.. Conger, who has
just returned from the East with his FAM
lily to. make his permanent home. The
greetings were cordial and the welcome
very hearty to the new pastor.
After giving liberal report of the SER
mon on al ome," which was a "fitting
theme for the opening services as they came
again to their church home and church
work." the Union said: "Many new fam
lilies came forward and expressed them
selves as anxious to be identified with
the work, and the general congratulations
on all sides, which lasted for half an
hour or more, showed the enthusiasm
felt in the cause, and indicates the prom
ise of what will be when the new church
is finished" The contract for the vestry,
or first story, which is of brick, is finish
ed. The superstructure of wood will be
pushed at once to completion.
We hope Br. Conger and the Pasadena
people will keep us we'll informed in re-
gard to their church progress. Many
friends are anxiously awaiting the good
report from this distant but encourag-
ing field.

Some Sensible Remarks from Practical
Authority OH the Book Trade.
Publishers OF cheap literature so-called-
have finally come TO the conclusion-sO Wa
hear it reported-that it does not pay. OF
course it does not pay, and, what is more, as
1t is managed at present, it viii never pay
any one. We are in favor of low priced
cooks, and believe that America will always
lead IN this direction, because Americans are
a hook-buying nation; but he who thinks that
literature is cheap because he publishes or be
cause he can get quarto, twelvemo or six
teenmo book printed in nlegible type, OIL
himsy paper and indifferently put up in pareI
COvers-in the making OF which, in one word.
every requisite of good book making is disre-
garded-for from 10 to 20 cents, is mistaken,
if ever a man was. Such work does not pay
the publisher for the trouble of getting it into
the market; booksellers handle it under pro
test, and the public bus it-with a mental
reservation.
What is wanted is an honest book, honestly
made IL the book be by a living writer,
whether native or foreign, remuneration for
his work should be, of course, the first great
sine qua non If the work be one on which
copyright has expired care should be taken III
the selection of the text. That should be web
edited by an authority the subject, il
possible In every case Tho type should be
legible, carefully and correctly sSt, printed III
good ink on substantial paper, and the whole
neatly and durabiy bound in cloth. Such
book, which may be made to sell anywl ere
from 80 cents to 81 p. viii yield a profit &c
all who are engaged il its manufacture and
sale, and viii really prove cheaper i'll the end

Stuttgart, and The Bibliographische Istift
and Freytag, of Lefn1ig, have already done
excellent work in this direction-and for that
matter so have a number Of our leading
houses. Why lower the standard!
And then there is a motive which in the END
will not prove merely sentimental one that
sbouId be borne in mind-the education of
the taste of the people. The reading public
does appreciate well made book, nOtwlth-

A school teacher Of Warren

that teachers are subjected to so
many examinations. He says cit
the applicant is entitled to first

number Of certificates she holds
add any to her qualifications as a
teacber!"- State Ledger.
There is a good deal of logic in
the above statement. Some ofthe
best teachers are unable to answer
the catch questions sent ous for
each examination. Teachers seem
TO be unanimous in the decision
that such examinations are not
